Media Reform

The media is in the hands of the corporations. Its only operated for profit from advertising. It is totally commercialized. The corporate tell us what they want us to know. Journalists needs to be free to tell the people all the news. Journalists need to be the fourth branch of government, sometimes called the fourth estate. Without a free press the people cannot rule, if it is to be demo-cracy. Investigative reporters must be able to report their findings. They cannot be denied to be able to research and report..On the contrary,this must be encouraged. The media corporations must become non-profit service organizations.
The Airwaves belong to the people. Proceeds from advertising must go for making the media the best educational toll possible for the people.
The Federal Communications Committee is a branch of the Executive Branch of our U.S. Government. Much could be dong by executive order. The congress can pass all other needed legislation. This change can only happen if the people demand it.----- Refer to Robert McChesney, "The Political Economy Of The Media".---------------------------Elbert Crary
